St. Paul daily globe., 1887-10-02

incident happened over this event.
Mr.. Bradford, the well-knOwn Arctic
painter, came on the platform and was
so delighted with the dainty beauties
that he made arrangements to have the
following little ones photographs taken
by JacOby as models for brother artists
in New York: Minnie VOgt, 400 Adams
street; Nellie Bolan, 732 Fourth street
south; Nora Clague, Hotel Ardmore;
Bady Parkhurst, 1903 Laurel avenue;
Bernice Baker, 3l0S Center street;
avenue; Virginia PendletOn, $50
Emerson avenue; Enga Lemke,
1925 Fourteenth avenue south; Dudley
Bagley, 1888 Third avenue south; Ella
Washburn, room 33, Skiles Lindley
block; Hazel Kelly, 6l2 University ave-
nue.; Lily Schreiber, 600 Fifth avenue
south; Lulu Wilson, 90 Thirteenth
street south. These three last children
are perfectly beautiful. Mr.. Bradford
expressed himself strongly about Lily
Schreiber, saying she was a perfect
little vision. Little Miss Lulu, is
a pronounced brunette, and her
charming looks were set off in costume
both elegant and neat in every respect.
Little Hazel Kelly is a beauty of a few
summers and came arrayed all in white.
Her eyes are great big blue ones and
her cheeks have most beautiful rose
ate hue. The whole affair was very
pleasant and created good deal of in
terest and excitement among all the
visitors at the Exposition.
EXPOSITION NOTES.
II there was happy crowd of youngsters
in Minneapolis they were surely present at
the Exposition yesterday. AT an early hour
they began to troop in and at 1880, the hour
odNarfiSA1 fnr thn of Dpnf
Nickle to begin, every seat in front and rear
was filed with an eager, eXpectant child,
accompanied i'll great many cases by parent
or friend. The professor was in his element
and worked as he never worked before to
entertain his little guests. He began by
gathering money in the air, making coins
disappear and appear at will, producing eggs
out OF bags, making water in glass hang
suspended in the air, producing ten doves
with rings borrowed in the audience around
their necks, from little frying, and in other
ways pleasing and mystifying the children.
But his crowning feat and one which was re-
ceived with the most unbounded delight by
every, child present. though every
trick he performed was greeted with shrieks
of approval, was the ineXhaustible hat He
began by producing yard after yard of tele-
graph paper from stovepipe hat borrowed
in the audience and from the same recepta-
Gle he scattered handful after handful of
candy, the gift of Mr.. Baker the candy man,
among the youngsters who howled them
selves hoarSe. Director Steele was an appre-
ciative spectator for awhile, but when the
candy ctbegan he was forced to leave, the
noise being too much for him. Mr.. Nickle
has been engaged for next Saturday, the last
children's day, and has prepared an entirely
new programme for that occasion, beginning
at 1890 and closing at noon.
With characteristic energy and enterprise,
Manager Palmer, as soon as he heard of the
intended visit of Cardinal Gibbons and the
other noted churchmen to the building, had
some special dodgers run announcing the
fact, and flooded the town with them. Re
suit, very pleased audience, who were more
than grateful for the opportunity of seeing
the distinguished visitors.
Prof. Nickle's disappearance of the per-
forming canary bird yesterday was the finest
piece of ledgerdemain ever seen in the city.
He promises a greater act next Saturday in
the flying bird cage.
While General Manager Palmer stood three
minutes at the guessing jar downstairs yes
terday, he heard two characteristic guesses.
One little girl said 80, 600, 900 of pieces and
one little boy said seventy-fve.
The judges in yesterdays prize contest had
hard task, but they acquitted themselves
admirably. 1t is said, however, that they
will leave the city before the awards are
made known.
